Chapter 34 Fight... robbery!
Rolf himself looks over forties, with a neatly brown hair, a slightly fat figure, and a suit that makes him look like a university professor.
No, it should be said that he himself is a professor, although he spends most of his time in the institute and few people see him in school.
He himself is not as famous as Einstein and Oppenheimer, and even in Germany, he is not as famous as Otto Hahn, or Werner Heisenberg. He even rarely publishes professional academic journals, but this does not bury his own talents.
In fact, it is similar to Zhang Yang's guess. The Dr. Rolf in front of him is actually not just a simple physicist. His academic research also involves nuclear physics. Fortunately for the Germans, this doctor is not very low-key in China.
It is precisely because of this low-key that Rolf has not been paid attention to by the "Arsos" team sent by the United States. Except for some German scientists who have had private contact with him, others have never even heard of his name.
"Dr. Rolf is our important scientist and a rare talent. Major, I will leave the safety of the doctor to you."
"No problem." Zhang Yang replied.
Zhang Yang previously speculated that the scientist was a supporter of the Nazis. However, after meeting him and having personally contacted him, Zhang Yang vaguely felt that the scientist did not seem to have joined the research project voluntarily, but was forced. Because before he appeared, there was a small team of fully armed German troops protecting the scientist in close proximity.
In Zhang Yang's opinion, Colonel Film's so-called protection is actually similar to guarding. Who has ever seen a team of soldiers carrying out protection missions aimed at the scientist's gun intentionally or unintentionally?
"This is probably a threat from the German army."
Zhang Yang sneered: "If this speculation is true, I'm afraid that the coerced scientist's family must have been controlled by the Germans. This scientist probably felt that he had no hope of getting rid of the Nazis, so he nodded and agreed."
All this is just Zhang Yang's guess, and no matter whether Rolf was a Nazi scientist or not, Zhang Yang's plan this time would not change, that is, intercept the precious scientist back to the UK and hand it over to the Allies for handling. If it is really the former, then the task of saving the doctor's family will be handed over to the Allies.
Zhang Yang did not think that he had abducted the postdoctoral fellow. His family would be killed immediately. If the German army did this, it would really push the doctor to the Allied camp. The power of a scientist who was experiencing with hatred should not be underestimated.
Colonel Filming looked at his watch and said, "Mr. Rolf. You can go and solve your physiological problems. You and the Major will take off in 10 minutes."
"Thanks."
Rolf said calmly, then left temporarily under the guard of the German army, while Zhang Yang was kept by Colonel Film.
Colonel Filming looked at Rolf's back and frowned slightly, reminding Zhang Yang: "Major, you must be careful to guard it. It is best not to be careless before arriving at the base. Although the Baron controlled his wife and daughter, if the Allies learned the news and tried their best to shoot down the plane, it would be troublesome."
"I will be careful. The pilot should be fine, right?" Zhang Yang asked.
"I am an old pilot with a rich night flight experience and a navigator." Colonel Filming lowered his voice: "I originally planned to let you leave on a modified ju88, but everyone could not take up the ju-52, and there was no problem with the fuel and all aspects, except for no weapons."
"Are there any fighter escorts? What if you encounter Allied planes in the middle of the journey?"
"The possibility of encountering Allied aircraft is not very high, and at the beginning I planned to let the me262 escort, but from here to Germany, the fuel consumption of the me262 cannot last for so long. Among the pilots of other aircraft types, there are too few pilots used to night flight, so there are no fighter escort this time. I am very sorry for this."
Colonel Filming smiled apologetically: "But I can guarantee that the routes in the middle of the plane are all our areas, so there should be no problems. And this will be more hidden. If there are fighter escorts, I'm afraid everyone knows that the goal here is very important."
Zhang Yang accepted Colonel Film's apologies very much. It would be better to have no fighter escort. After a conversation, Dr. Rolf, who was escorted and guarded, had come out of the bathroom and was ready to set off.
"Goodbye, Colonel."
Zhang Yang said goodbye.
"Welcome again."
Colonel Filming also had a smile on his face. This time, he felt very satisfied with the "Major Haust" sent by the Baron. He couldn't help but start wondering if he should find something fun for the Baron to send it.
Colonel Film then personally sent everyone to the runway, with guidance lights on both sides of the runway, unless it was closed during takeoff to prevent the night-attacked Air Force from being targeted. With the lights, he saw a half-new "Junke Aunt" docked on the runway. The pilot and navigator were waiting for everyone to board the plane on both sides of the hatch doors.
"Report to Colonel Filming, my plane is ready and can take off at any time!" The pilot stood attentively when he saw everyone coming.
"Okay, be careful about safety in the middle of the way." Colonel Filming was obviously very satisfied.
Bucky and the other four followed Zhang Yang, and more than a dozen German soldiers followed Colonel Filming. Just before everyone boarded the plane, Colonel Filming suddenly looked straight, stood straight with a bang, raised his right arm 45 degrees high, stretched his five fingers together, and stretched forward, and Zhang Yang followed closely behind.
"Long live Hitler!"
As the two of them were doing, the Germans around the runway also stood attentively, and at the same time, the man raised his right arm and said, "Long live Hitler!"
On such a formal occasion, the two officers, who were school-level officers, raised their hands to show respect. Zhang Yang had already considered these things before and had specially advised Bucky and the other four. Seeing Zhang Yang and Colonel Film's actions, the four of them quickly raised their hands to show respect without making a fool of themselves.
Well, as a great warrior of the anti-fascist alliance, it is not so difficult to accept that it is aggrieved to pay tribute to Hitler at such moments.
The only slow reaction was Dr. Rolf. As a result, no one needed to say anything, the Nazi soldiers in the corridor looked at Dr. Rolf in one go, frightening the other party in a cold sweat, and hurriedly raised their hands to salute, so they were not killed by their eyes.
"goodbye."
"goodbye."
Zhang Yang and Colonel Filming said the last time, and took Bucky and Dr. Rolf on the plane with him.
The Ju-52, which is specially used as a passenger plane, is very spacious inside, with a standard carrying 21 people. There are only eight people in this flight, including the pilot and the navigator. Among them, the navigator himself is also a pilot, but here he serves as a temporary navigator for night navigation.
The pilot turned his head from the front and reminded: "Sir, please put on your coat and wear a seat belt. It will be colder to fly in the air."
At this time, the airplane's warmth and sealing is far from comparable to later generations. After flying to a certain altitude, the temperature will drop below zero. Pilots and passengers need to wear thick clothes. Moreover, this is Nordic, and it is one of the coldest months. It is definitely not a joke to get over minus 30 degrees Celsius.
"Doctor, I'll help you."
Zhang Yang looked at Dr. Rolf, who had been busy there for a long time but still had no seat belt on him, and stepped forward to help him fasten his seat belt. Dr. Rolf was a little embarrassed.
"Thank you, Mr. Major."
"It's okay, this is what I should do." Zhang Yang grinned and returned to his seat to tie his seat belt.
Bucky and the bearded man stayed next to Dr. Rolf, one left and one right, and the remaining two were next to Zhang Yang. The German firearms they used when they came were also brought on the plane, and Colonel Filming also replenished the ammunition for everyone. The big box and suitcase brought along the five people were also worn on the plane. The big box was fixed with a net and a rope, and the suitcase was held by himself at the request of Dr. Rolf.
Through the porthole, Zhang Yang could see Colonel Filming and other soldiers retreated for a while, leaving enough space for the plane to glide.
"Please sit firmly, gentlemen, we are about to take off!"
The pilot was named Joseph and the navigator was named Palen. Under the control of the two, the ju-52 plane slid up on the runway. With a violent bump and a sense of airflow, everyone rushed to the scene and found that the plane had officially taken off.
Looking down from the ancient porthole, you can see that the people on the runway are getting smaller and smaller. There are several towers around the top of the base, with searchlights installed inside. At this moment, a huge white light hits the night sky, indicating the direction for the plane.
After the plane advances for a while and cannot see the instructions of the lighthouse, it depends on the pilot to grasp the course, the flight speed to determine the range, the distance determines the coordinates, the coordinates determine the area, and the area comes from the map, and the compass is used to compare the flight angle and direction, so as to achieve the purpose of sailing at night.
Compared with the Allies that often conduct night air raids, the Germans obviously have much less experience in night flight, but it does not mean that none of them are available. As the lighthouse at the base becomes smaller and smaller, Joseph looked at the surrounding scenery. There was a moon tonight, and the snow on the ground and the peaks reflected a faint light, which was relatively beneficial to flight.
"Palun, see what the current course deviation is."
"No problem, I'll start comparing now."
Under Joseph's order, the navigator Palen still played a role. The destination had been marked on the map in advance. After measuring the angle, he relied on the compass to adjust the existing flight angle.
However, just as he took out the compass, he suddenly heard a sound coming from behind him. When he looked back, a guy holding a tight mask was looking at them.
"Gentlemen, we are going to fight..., rob!"
